Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

Chapter 211



—–

As a Ghost and a Death Attribute Mage, I have a certain ability. If I touch a soul, I can see through their past, even their memories, and perhaps a glimpse of the future they could go through.

It’s nothing crazy, and it only works with souls that are already outside a body. It won’t work on anything else. It is somehow a way to see what might happen to them.

By touching the souls of the people of the spider dungeon, I saw their past and what they went through. It wasn’t pretty, but it was a swift death.

The venom the spiders injected into them almost instantly killed them, and then… well, their bodies were slowly drained out of their internal juice… yeaaah, pretty horrible.

I suppose they were already dead when that happened, so it was okay… I still feel bad when I see these souls. Some of them had a very strong and terrible death and so agonizing that their appearances turned amorphous as if they had become a mass of venomous purple liquid.

Maybe if I use Fake Life on them, they could turn into Poison Ghosts or something… but I really don’t want to do that.

I want to go with Syllis’ wishes and… give these people a nice and peaceful ending, one where they’ll go to the afterlife and rest once and for all.

I looked into the moonlight.

The little girl inside the dungeon… was she at fault for their deaths?

Most likely.

She didn’t show herself in these memories, so she did things indirectly, but she still did them… she manipulates and controls the hive of spiders, after all.

So… in a way, she’s the murderer of Syllis’ family.

I don’t really know what to think about this. I have so many conflicted emotions.

But I really don’t want to kill her… Maybe because she has the body of a little human-like girl.

Perhaps if she were a mere monster, I wouldn’t have doubted, right?

Even as a ghost, my mind is very human-like sometimes… and I am a big softie too.

I just can’t bring myself to kill a child.

Maybe she’s just inexperienced. Perhaps it is not too late to show her something different in life, to teach her how to use her strength…

This girl is very mysterious… I don’t think I’ve told my friends about her yet.

I don’t want to… I want to keep her a secret for now.

She’s… what if they want to kill her to avenge Syllis’ family?

What I fear is that I wouldn’t be able to stop them because I know it is justified.

And I know she’s just a monster deep down…

She’s certainly not a normal girl…

Agh, who would have thought that a ghost would have morality problems? I really suck at these sorts of things… I am not cut out for this.

But really, what is she anyway? I can’t tell. She’s a girl-shaped monster generated by the dungeon? But… she’s way too strong.

Was she born this strong? Or how does that go? I am wondering these things because I can’t stop thinking about her… quite possibly because I am with her right now, using a clone.

The day passed normally, as she played with me and tried biting me a couple of times until she gave up. After that, she ended up going to read and then went to sleep again. She squeezed me into the bed with her… she likes my little snake clone, I guess.

But this girl… never walks outside.

Is she afraid of the outside world? Or, most likely, the spiders provide her with everything, so she doesn’t need to walk outside.

But it feels as if sometimes she really wants to go outside, walk outside, and meet the world outside… I wonder if she really does not want to go to the outside world… maybe… she’s afraid of coming out of her dungeon?

Well, seeing how powerful she is and the immense aura of power she emanates, plus the spiders working to her command, it’s better if she doesn’t go outside.

Yeah, better keep the little problem girl inside the dungeon for now! I will have to smother her down with my motherly love until she becomes a good girl and not a world-ending entity.

Because if she controls all these spiders… she could very much take down an entire Kingdom.

I think… she’s very dangerous indeed! I think she’s stronger than all of us combined too.

We can’t even see her status yet, but she has such a powerful aura coming out of her. Is she a goddess or something?!

Well, not that strong but still… at least above A-Rank… maybe… S-Rank?

Ugh… aren’t S-Rank threats… like… continental level and beyond? She’s really troublesome.

Yeah, we better not go to the dungeon to waste away our lives. Thank you very much.

And she doesn’t seem to want anything other than eat and read her books. In fact, she seems very childish.

Without any intention of conquest, she’ll only make her spider hunt whatever they find to feed themselves and to feed her… so there isn’t any real incentive for them to go out of their way and attack innocent people far away from here.

But the scale in which their strength is… Well, that’s the problem, it is very big, and they’re very strong too, so it’s gonna be troublesome either way.

For now, it would be better to let her be. I want to use my clone to grow closer to her a bit. If I can slowly smother her down and make her into a nice girl that will not destroy the world with her army of giant spiders, we can get to a good ending.

But seriously, this girl is so strong she seems right out of some sort of Game Boss bestiary… Is she some sort of living calamity? If she’s blessed by Loki, the God of Chaos… then she’s certainly someone deserving of that Divine Protection, right?

This girl is really such a headache…
